GFS in delivery deal with Panther

Global Freight Solutions has partnered up with Panther, the one and two man home delivery service, for online sales of domestic electrical equipment.

GFS’ commercial director Daniel Ennor said that evidence from retailers it works with has shown that customers are increasingly confident in ordering larger goods online.

“Even in the last few years, there has been a clear progression from merely researching items such as fridges, freezers, washing machines and large TVs online before buying in store,” he said. “Now, shoppers are quite prepared to complete transactions online and that means being able to offer appropriate and specialist support of a firm like Panther, given that not every delivery company is able to ship such large products.
